M&S/furries/school kids

That furrys have nothing to do with any of this at all.

I agree.

It's not that easy to find at all. Where do kids look websites made for that sort of content?
DeviantArt is full of the stuff, it show up on image searches.

And YouTube.

That furrys have nothing to do with any of this at all. As I have said already. It's more uncanny than being linked to furrys at all.

It's not that easy to find at all. Where do kids look websites made for that sort of content? You can't just find it on google images. I mean if there kids surely safe search would be turned on anyways. Voiding the results that would even come up for it as null.

It definitely doesn't suggest furries to me, but I agree it's creepy - just not in a sexual way. Uncanny valley effect maybe.

Theres much worse out there than furries, I can tell you that 100%

Yes, what's your point?

Here we go again, it's a article online. How do you know?

It's from a survey from furcenter, a furry site. It's an "insider" survey, from the actual community in question.

Theres much worse out there than furries, I can tell you that 100%

You can't just place the blame on everyone.

Who here has said it's everyone, even the statists prove its not the whole subculture, but to deny any link with beastiality when almost 20% are happy to admit to it, or claim it's not sexual is ridiculous.

It's fine if you are an adult and are into this, it's really fine.

Not so much if you are putting pictures of cartoon characters in bondage gear in places on the net where kids can see it, which happens a lot.

Here we go again, it's a article online. How do you know? I know more female friends who are furrys then my Male friends. So dont start with that for the love of god and yes I have friends who are and if you have a problem that's not my issue. There really lovely and caring people.

I don't know what furries are.
However clearly these adverts are using the characteristics/appearance of animals to highlight a feature of the uniform using puns/language.
Eg. Hedgehogs have sharp prickles.
Our shirts have sharp creases.
I really think you are over thinking it.

Furries are something completely different. Often female, as it happens.

That's wrong, see the survey sheet I linked above.

Those pictures don’t “read” as furries to me at all. I think they’re ugly and it’s a stupid campaign though.

It's not like its putting anything on them, advertising has always had werid ways of getting products across to buyer's. I mean look at some of the tv ad's from the early 2000's they were weird as anything. It's used to catch the eye of someone and that's what marketing does, it's a tool to get people to buy said item.

I think that even children who love animals will be creeped out by seeing adverts with realistic animals’ heads put on to real children’s bodies.
Agree it feels like someone in the team is either having a nasty in-jokey type of laugh at M&S customers’ expense by referencing this fetish in marketing of a product for kids, or someone is getting a thrill on putting their stuff out there in plain sight.

Puppies aren't the same as furries. Still gross tho

Um, you know that “Puppies” aren’t furries, right? They are a specific subset of gay S&M culture. In the same way that bears and otters aren’t furries, they are older hairy chunky lumberjack-type guys, and younger slimmer hairy guys respectively.

Furries are something completely different. Often female, as it happens. And completely different again from paedophiles using dolls to groom children by normalising sex acts.

I found Rupert creepy too when I read them to my kids as an adult. Something about the animal heads with human hands

WTAF, Rupert Bear?! He's not creepy lol.
Loved Rupert as an 8 year old!
These boards are barking sometimes

@Endofthedays Well this is escalating!

I really only mean it’s not a connection most people would make. Culture is full of human animal hybrids, and it almost never has anything to do with furries. Most people don’t even know what a furry is

Exactly, don't know why your post is getting jumped on so much

I'm sorry

I just dont get why its disliked so much because of certain l people. I just want people to understand that its not all bad.

Right I know, I'm not angry at all. I'm just trying to say that it's not all bad. Yes I said someone them can do that and for them it's true. Sorry if I'm coming out like that. I just dont think that fandom on a whole should be judged, yes there people like that who do wrong things but you get that most places you go and let them be judged. I'm not trying to upset people at all. I just find it hard that me and friends do enjoy this (spending time together) get hate for being a part of this community. I'm sorry

They can burn in hell, I couldn't care any less about them at all. Just dont hate everyone.

You sound very angry.
You can’t say things like ‘burn in hell’ followed by ‘don’t hate everyone.’

No one is hating. Do what you want in private.

Does anything on here not involve all of your tearing it to pieces. Your all shallow minded. The articles you pulled up. Right it's an article, did you even stop to think that it could be fake?? Yes a small amount of people might do things that aren't right but you can't take it out on people that have done nothing wrong. I'm right, you just can't hate people who have done nothing wrong. And if you think I'm protecting the small amount of people. They can burn in hell, I couldn't care any less about them at all. Just dont hate everyone.

I came to help and to let you get an understanding that not all of it is wrong. But it just seems you all dont take any of the points I'm making into account.

you can't just blame an entire subculture for few peoples wrong doings. That a 17/100. Theres still 83% you dont take into account and as I told you but none of you picked up on it us as a community hate people who do things like that. You can't just place the blame on everyone. That's just judgemental
